Sjømatfristelser på Gladmat - hummer som får tennene til å løpe i vannTo sum up this years festival in one word; success! The weather was great all the time, 200 000 people visited Stavanger, and we could see smiles everywhere. The police are happy, and the security people had nothing to do. As a foreign journalist said; - This is the best branding for the Stavanger region as the food capital of Norway you can ask for.
Arne Brimi, the famous chef, said there is nothing like this in any part of the world. - Other places invite great superstars to attract an audience, Stavanger doesn't need it to have 200 000 people visit the food festival, he said.
This year Gladmat has taken the cultural program of the festival to a new level, and people like it. Madeleines Food theatre from Denmark filled up at Tou Scene. The poetry hike to Dalsnuten in Sandnes and the Cultural dinner at Hå gamle prestegard were great experiences.
Gladmat is the place to be to show off news, great traditions and all kinds of food stuff. Welcome back next year!
